FT-like genes in Cannabis and hops: sex specific expression and copy-number variation may explain flowering time variation [PDF]

BMC Genomics
Cannabis sativa is a fascinating, yet under-researched, species. To facilitate the global expansion of C. sativa cultivation a greater understanding of flowering time control is crucial. The PEBP gene family consists of universal promoters and repressors

Functional Characterization of Floral Gene Network Reveals a Critical FT1–AP1 Interaction in Flowering Regulation in Longan [PDF]

Plants
Longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) is a commercially valuable tropical fruit crop that contains two antagonistic FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) homologs involved in regulating flowering time. However, how these FT genes interact with flowering regulators FLOWERING

Repression of flowering by the miR172 target SMZ. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2009
A small mobile protein, encoded by the FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) locus, plays a central role in the control of flowering. FT is regulated positively by CONSTANS (CO), the output of the photoperiod pathway, and negatively by FLC, which integrates the effects

Repression of FLOWERING LOCUS T chromatin by functionally redundant histone H3 lysine 4 demethylases in Arabidopsis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) plays a key role as a mobile floral induction signal that initiates the floral transition. Therefore, precise control of FT expression is critical for the reproductive success of flowering plants. Coexistence of bivalent histone H3

The FLOWERING LOCUS T LIKE 2-1 gene of Chenopodium triggers precocious flowering in Arabidopsis seedlings

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2023
The FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) gene is the essential integrator of flowering regulatory pathways in angiosperms. The paralogs of the FT gene may perform antagonistic functions, as exemplified by BvFT1, that suppresses flowering in Beta vulgaris, unlike the ...

Adaptation and integration of environmental cues to internal flowering network in Arabidopsis thaliana

Reproduction and Breeding, 2022
Transition to flowering is timed by environmental cues in plants, which makes plants flower at a favorable time for seed setting. Seasonal cues like cold exposure and day length and environmental abiotic stresses have been found to affect floral ...

Inter-species functional compatibility of the Theobroma cacao and Arabidopsis FT orthologs: 90 million years of functional conservation of meristem identity genes

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background In angiosperms the transition to flowering is controlled by a complex set of interacting networks integrating a range of developmental, physiological, and environmental factors optimizing transition time for maximal reproductive efficiency ...

Flowering Times of Wild Arabidopsis Accessions From Across Norway Correlate With Expression Levels of FT, CO, and FLC Genes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Temperate species often require or flower most rapidly in the long daylengths, or photoperiods, experienced in summer or after prolonged periods of cold temperatures, referred to as vernalization.

Photoperiodic regulation of flowering time through periodic histone deacetylation of the florigen gene FT. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2013
The developmental transition from a vegetative to a reproductive phase (i.e., flowering) is timed by the seasonal cue day length or photoperiod in many plant species.

The nature of floral signals in Arabidopsis. II. Roles for FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) and gibberellin [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2008
Signals produced in leaves are transported to the shoot apex where they cause flowering. Protein of the gene FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) is probably a long day (LD) signal in Arabidopsis. In the companion paper, rapid LD increases in FT expression associated with flowering driven photosynthetically in red light were documented.
